He's probably not Immortal. Whatever wish he made set our, and all of the Z-Warrior's, Potential to 1.

Except instead of making him stronger it made everyone else weaker. That seems a bit Monkey's Paw if I'm honest.

Not if that was his intent? In canon he was fine with his Power he just wanted Immortality.
He is also unaware of Aliens.

If you say so. But are you saying that it is in character for this antagonist, that if he got the chance to make a wish he would wish for his enemies to be weaker and not for himself to be stronger?
It makes more sense to me if the former is a side effect of his wish for the latter.
It like saying I wish you were dumber than me. And not I wish I was smarter than you. The first has more negative phrasing than the latter. But again intent plays a role as well. So not sure really. We'll find out when you tell us IF we roll well.

Antagonists are inherently negative.
"Cut of my nose to spite my face" comes to mind, and using a Wish to take someone's pride would be more effective at crushing them than physically crushing them with power you got from a Wish Dragon
Then again, why not both?

"Grant me the potential of the Z-Fighters and their families"? Would that wording make sense?

Yes but that isn't his wish. also Bulma and Launch are unaffected
Hmm, with our perfect control over Green, we really should try turning the Bubbles in our LEGENDARY Bubble Beam into Kienzan. It wouldn't be HARD for us, we got perfect Ki Control while Green after all, and such a razor sharp blade of energy would probably be more deadly than just a bubble.
Question for @lordchaos99 If we learn to put our will into our Ki while outside of LEGEND, would the Tsuihikidan Modifer become useless? Cause from what I can tell, it allows us to redirect Ki Attacks after we shoot them, but that's a thing we can already do in LEGEND. Or would it make us even BETTER at doing it?

Can you call it Green Ki rather than "put our will into Ki". It's shorter and less likely to confuse people.
You could probably develop a Kienzan and a Kienzan Beam. You just need to study under Krillin or write-in Technique invention next planning session
Tsui is redundant with Blaster Shells, but it's a technique that manipulates the wind. A good jumping off point for Things dont you think?

Didn't know it would actually be Green Ki. The write-in makes it sound like we are learning how Green Ki does it, then apply it to all our Ki.
I knew we could, I was just announcing we should.
It manipulates the wind? What? I don't see anything about that on the wiki.
As for Things, the only thing I could think of from there is Telekinesis. Most other things we could do with Wind that I can think of aren't really useful at high powerlevels.

Oh oops. I could have sworn I wrote that in the skill description. I know I did in the update
It's basically giving the air two linked signatures and making it bring them together.
And the technique on the wiki is a charged homing shot, not a Modifier. Clearly I made changes.
Same with the Jan Ken, which is just a three-strike combo in canon (eye poke scissors, palm strike paper, punch rock). I wanted each martial art to be distinct from each other
Tsui is an upgrade to the 'protect air' technique, preventing Earth-Shattering shockwaves. It's the link to all sorts of fun indirectness, some of which have been brought up in the thread
It's not just imbuing motion, but speed and other properties.

Heh. I would like to retract my previous statement. Gohan was unaffected by the Wish. I hadn't gotten around to rolling his encounter yet.

"Gottex stay here on the Lookout. Anyone you don't recognize arrives, kill them." You command with cold fury, though frankly she couldn't leave without help, without the ability to fly. The baby clad in the uniform of the wise and the old nods solemnly, pulling herself up by Kami's cane.
"Mr Popo will keep you company." You tell her, before vanishing from even her enhanced vision.
[5.4]
Stretching your Green Energy higher you spot the column of light from the Dragonballs. The great red dragon fading out as you force yourself faster.
A pulse of force hits you like a Super Saiyan punch to the gut, but then your Emerald Energy takes hold of it, dissolving the connection. A pulse of force hits you like a Super Saiyan punch to the gut, slamming through your Green Energies as if it wasn't there to affect your unaltered soul. You force yourself through it as you spot the column splitting into seven lines. Grabbing the first easily, you feel the force pull back, and with it take a portion of you.
[5.4] [16]
You yell and move forward, confused to find your Perfect self lacking something, smaller than you were. The second ball you pluck from the air, casually holding them as they tug against your grip.
[5.3] [14]
The pressure increases, fueled by mystical power. You bring your power to bear, but it already has it's hooks into you. The moment of resistance has passed and each moment after the Wish Energy sinks deeper inside you, siphoning away more and more of your titanic potential. You feel yourself slowing down as the Dragonballs get further and further away. BUT YOU CANNOT! The third and the fourth join your collection.
[5.7] [10]
[5.3]
[5.5]
Your body aches, burns, the very Energy that you are cannot help but Burn your body. Legendary Energies fight against implacable, titanic Wish Power that bears upon it forced consent. You growl ferally, eyes focused on your prizes ahead.
The fifth dragonball, then the sixth. Stuffed under your Gi, they strain with mere mortal force to be free and even that quells slowly now their flight has been interrupted.
[5.1] [5]
You scream, your three year old body shaking with effort as you hold within you a thousandfold more than you could ever sustain. Your skin blisters and emerald light shines through like a lantern through paper. In the upper stratosphere you slow down, the final Dragonball racing away ahead of you.
[1] [1]
You gasp for air in the upper atmosphere, fingers stretched out, barely touching the flying orb. Scrabbling for a grip on the sleek Dragonball as the colour leeches from your hair. You are not the LEGEND, you are not Legendary enough to achieve the form.
You are Gossard Briefs, half-human and with the lack of potential that implies. A vast suction in your soul leading to the planet below. Tears boil away from your cheeks as you freeze in the unnatural tugging cold.
You feel gravity take hold. Pulling you back down to Earth.
A Dragonball clutched in your fist.
---
Your soul is overburdened, and it burns. An enormous amount of Ki strains inside you, like air inside an overinflated balloon. With every possible outlet it tries to pour through.
Your skin shines as you develop an entirely natural aura of flames. The heat of reentry nothing but tingling to your majesty, but each speck of Ki used to protect against that comes with it a dozen more bursting out wasted and forever gone.
You strain and struggle for the Legendary form again, but no matter how many times you twist the Green within you it does not respond. Cannot respond. It only responds to Legends after all.
And a pathetic brat with the lowest potential possible for a lifeform cannot possibly be Legendary.
The ground rises in your view. Details ever so slowly picking their way out.
And with strained, painstakingly small, emissions of Power you guide your way. You cannot spend frivolously, for it will not come back, so you simply guide your fall at the concentration of Power. The place where the column had appeared.
The location of Garlic Junior. Whose power you can feel, power welling up, burgeoning into the thousands, tens of thousands, above.
Power stolen from you. Potential stolen from you.
---
You land at terminal velocity in the courtyard of a destroyed castle. Onyx eyes glare hatred at the small green man in front of you, setting the Dragonballs on a nearby pile of rubble.
"Ah, so you do maintain some measure of strength. Still, it won't be for long hahaha." The thing laughs. Surrounding him are three other green men who all assume fighting stances when they see you. Standing behind them, looking blankly at nothing, is Mister Piccolo. A stylized chess-piece castle marking his forehead.
"What did you do." You demand, shifting into the limiting stance of the Turtle. You keep your durability low however, your skin no longer pulsing with Ki freeing itself, though within you feel the same pressure remaining.
"One single Wish monkeyboy. A wish to solve all of my problems. I wished for the potential and the power of every True Martial Artist on the planet, and their descendants. And look what I got!" A casual flick of his wrist and a mountain in the distance detonates.
"Oh it is such a rush! And to think, I was going to wish for Immortality first. But then you came along, with your aura of Death and Despair, your colossal Power! Of course, the Dragonballs on their own couldn't strip everyone, no many of you exceeded the strength imbued upon it's creation. But fortunately, I had it's creator here, ready and not-so-willing to improve them, a little Super kickstart. Give them a little, software patch, so to say. You'd know about that, little Briefs, son of that horrid blue-haired bit-"
You see red for a second, and before you realize it you are putting a fist through Garlic Junior's face. Only to pale when it simply shifts his head slightly, his eyes locked on you.
"-tch. Heh. Precocious Brat!" He punctuates the last word by burying his hand into your stomach.
"Leave my brother alone if you wish to live." You hear the call as a golden-haired Demi-Saiyan lands, within his palms two glowing orbs of Power form "The only, and I do mean sole, person allowed to inflict grievous bodily harm upon his physical or mental form is his twin the half-saiyan half-human monozygotic twin otherwise known as Gohan Theodore Briefs, or colloquially ME. So step away before I render each and every organ you possess into a fragmentary state and proceed to force you to ingest them at the same time AS MY FIST!
"What?" The Makyan blinks.
"Heh..." you cough, smirking as you interpret "Step away or he will ram your own organs down your throat. Also his middle name is Theodore."
"Not the time Gossard." he growls, teal eyes locked onto Garlic.
Mister Piccolo stirs, his eyes refocusing, on you. He growls like a rabid beast, but shifts fluidly into Gohan's favored stance. The three other Makyans look conflicted, between which twin to attack.
What Do?
[X] Be Gossard
-[X] Look at Gohan, look at the power he wields, the power he STILL HAS. You want it, you want to be STRONG, you want to make the enemy hurt. You want to avenge Momma's honor, you want to avenge Gottex, you want Mr. Piccolo back!
-[X] This is your fight, YOU ARE FIRSTBORN, YOU ARE THE LEGENDARY SAIYAN PRINCE! YOU WILL NOT LOSE TO A LOWLY THIEF!
-[X] But you cannot feel the Green, are you not a Legend? NO! You are BETTER, STRONGER, YOU MUST WIN! YOU WILL NOT LOSE TO TRICKERY, YOU WILL NEVER BE A WEAKLING!
-[X] You cannot be weak, you cannot lose now, this is not happening. AT ALL! You are Gossard Briefs and YOU ARE STRONG. You reject a reality where you are weak, where strength can be stolen. YOU. WILL. WIN!

Damnit Gohan. Stop stealing our MC spot!
Gossard = Vegeta intensifies.
OH well, at least we eventually become more popular?
Also, I wonder why Gohan wasn't touched. Considering he was one of the True Martial Artist's descendants.
Edit: But man, it seems we really did choose the worst possible vote combination huh. Learning martial arts from goku sounds like it screwed us.

Muh pride, Gohan steps all over it. Also holy shit we pass the orbit and still catch all Dragon Balls even while weakened and semi-dying? Gossard is hardcore.
Also we are now officially the Vegeta of this quest, at least we'll get a hotter and more useful wife than Gohan. Also our son will pull bullshit powerups from his ass while Gohan's son waste their potential.

Bloody hell, this is Goku's fault. Gossard knows a martial art, but it isn't a martial artist in spirit. It's just another source of power, so he shouldn't be subject to the "true martial artist" bit of the Wish...but his father was on the planet.
Should have left him in the Otherworld.

No, you'd have been gotten with the 'and descendants' bit. Which Garlic included because would You expect a 3 year old to count as a martial artist? (this is why the gutpunch happens twice btw)
Its also that bit that screwed you over. The Legend was a martial artist, but was not the descendant of a Martial Artist on the planet. But Gossard was.
Which means you didn't get the Legendary PL boost. Magical Conceptual Loophole Abuse works both ways
And because Piccolo was forced to upgrade the Dragonballs to 750,000 (Super Namek + Garlic Mark), your Base form wasn't enough.
But Gohan in his (cheating haxxor) Super form, which IS him, lacking the hivemind Specialness of Legend, got the boost to 2Mil.
@lordchaos99
Soo, we can't use Legend transformation right?
Wonder if this might be enough to unlock orange. Considering I can totally see us at being in denial at no longer being the legend anymore or no longer being as powerful.

To be a Legendary Saiyan, one must be a Legend.
No pitiful halfbreed with a Potential of 1 can be a Legend.
So, uh no not right now. And if you want Orange, feel free to write-in. Something about reaching for every spark you can in reckless need to Ascend again perhaps? After all, Piccolo is about to come kick the crap out of you. You cannot beat Piccolo in your Base Form even with your new handicap.
